About AWS

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform. We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating — that’s why customers from the most successful startups to Global 500 companies trust our robust suite of products and services to power their businesses.

This new role “Construction Safety Manager” is for an experienced Health and Safety (H&S) Specialist, H&S Engineer, or H&S Manager who will support AWS Data Center Planning and Delivery (DCPD) programs.

About the Role

You will work under the direction of H&S Program Specialists within the assigned region (Americas, Europe Middle East Africa, or Asia Pacific/Japan China).

This is a field based role, required to report to work at field construction and retrofit projects in the greater area five days per week. Occasional travel to other domestic locations may be required.

• Coordinate with DCPD managers to prioritize H&S in planning and execution in all phases of DCPD projects.

• Identify improvement opportunities at project(s), and partner with Data Center Health and Safety (DCHS) Operational Team on regional issues that impact construction/operations handover phases.

• Conduct regular site visits with H&S 3rd party resources, construction managers and Data Center Health and Safety Operational teams.
• Host project and regional specific contractor and internal team H&S kickoff sessions and annual performance review sessions.

You will apply your knowledge of the jurisdictional requirements, regional best practices, cultural norms, and location specific characteristics to improve DCPD activities in H&S by jumping in and showing the business “this is what the data is telling us, and this is how it is done” and develop DCPD competencies to enable them ownership of your solutions. You must be an effective communicator, sending clear, concise and consistent messages verbally, in written form, and/or public speaking forums. You will play a key role in deploying mechanisms that manage H&S, while developing competencies and ownership of H&S in the business.
